Weaning
Hello ladies, hope you are all well this evening.
We have been weaning Neve for a couple of weeks now and she is getting on well with it and really enjoys eating. So far she likes Carrots, Parsnips, apples, pears, peaches, bananas, butternut squash, sweet potato and mango. I tried her today on Brocolli and Cauliflower and she wasn't keen at all. I don't see her not liking it as a problem because I can try her again on it in a few days but I do wonder if I have been giving her too much sweet and not enough savoury. What do you think, do I need to cut down on sweet? (she is 18 wks which I know is early for weaning but hv agreed she was very ready!)
Thanks
Lottie

best of luck, julesy xx
I give her fruit with her morning feed at 7am and then veg (or veg mixed with fruit) at 3. She is still taking 7oz per feed 4 times a day with about 3oz on the dream feed but the last couple of days she gets the hump when she sees its a bottle coming her way and not a spoon! I think 20oz a day is what the minimum should be, how much milk does your lo take if you give him solids at the same feed?
he has milk 5 times a day and porridge with his 1st milk of the day and veg or baby rice with the feed at about 4 or 5.
he doesn't seem to like milk but at the moment drinks it because he needs to!?
